Shango066, You said around the 45 minute mark that "This is crappy video" False sir! I appreciate your uploads your diagnoses skills are the best on TH-cam! I'm restoring a Zenith console TV Radio and phonograph from 1951. Even with my Engineering background I don't think I could've taken on a project like this without your tutorials. you have a great teaching style and I appreciate it.
When it comes to Shango066 there is no such thing as a "crappy video" (a fun video maybe, but definitely not crappy - very entertaining and educational). I learn a few new terms (i.e. made-up words) and things (including diagnosis and step-by-step troubleshooting) from watching some of his clips.
I miss the thrown in funny phrases "double dopple fluuberly", it added extra entertainment value. One of the previous vids he came out with one of his phrases and I laughed till I cried. That aside this was two hours of pure, educational fun. Over the year's Shango is the only channel I've stuck with and that's because he doesn't hide mistakes which would prevent us falling down the same hole. I really dislike vids where everything is perfect, then when you try the project it doesn't work because the vid creator has edited out all the diagnostic work. Shango for President. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Cool, it sounds like a Zenith port-hole model. Does it look like the one (one of may vintage TVs) in the Rolling Stones "She was hot." video? th-cam.com/video/VQh8oh0rj3s/w-d-xo.html Good luck with it; I'll bet it's worth a fair amount.
There are holocausts going on daily . . hard to talk about , here in Oz classic old tv's & record player radio combo's etc . . amazing old beasts/old computers etc . . get trashed at recycling/dump center's . . due to idiots in those facilities
Transformer date code 606 = Schumacher manufacturer 5 = last digit again probably 1955 38 = 38th week of the year The other stuff above the numbers on these are the part numbers for Trav-ler. They could tell Schumacher when they ordered what to put on there as a custom part number so they could keep them straight in the factory, or it would come as a standard Schumacher part number. Those Schumacher transformers are the same brand used on 1950s and 1960s Fender guitar amplifiers. The output transformers could be very valuable if they work, being from 1955!
it can be Restord whit a 90% nue Hausing, CRT-Rebuild and you can jous it as a funny Monitor for a 90s Sega-Mega-Drive, Sony PS 1, 2 or 3 or for Wotsching old Wovi-VHS-Taps. not everievon can do the Work, but can and wod du it, but i lif in Germania. @@CLUBNEON-m6i
I have these videos going all night long next to me on my iPad. For some reason I like to fall asleep with Shango066 playing. Soothing voice and entertainment at a high level.
No transistorized B&W TV had an image like the old tube TVs. In my childhood i took apart these old televisions and kept the components in a box under my bed. 6BZ6, 6AU6, 6U8, 6DQ6, 6AL5, PL509 ... The ladies of that old days. Congratulations and good job.
watching you put a smashed valve in the tube tester and talk about the test so seriously, i laughed and giggled out loud for ages then you start talking about grid leakage awesome sense of humour shango, just awesome.
You have seriously forgotten more than I, or most will ever know about electronics. "Nicely done" does not even scratch the surface of how good this resurrection is. Your predictive analysis of critical components, taking into account the circuit function of each part, voltage, current, and signals present, is a masterpiece. I've read a lot of books on TV repair with authors like Middleton, Kiver, Grob, and, of course, Jack Darr. None possessed the rare combination of physics, engineering and technician level skill that you display here.
Walt's Channel I often wonder what his background is and what he does for a living. I haven't figured that out by his channel. I find his ability to get these sets running to be amazing. God Bless
Neat how there happened to be 2 of the same chassis sitting out there, and it's amazing that some of these can still function after basic repairs despite being out in the elements for decades.
I can't stop watching ,Great about the resurrection an it's a television. Have an old television round crt ,rca, bakelite cabinet .. I too use a variac.. Will use some of your techniques. I noticed they still transmit color patterns . Keep up the good work . Paul
I am impressed. You bring it back to alive. it is ashamed that is all for the dumpster at the end. In Germany These kind of TVs are really Rare. Thank you so much for the Entertaining Video. :)
I know little about this brand. However to work as good as you managed, with most of its original parts, after what that TV has been through... That is quality. That was a well made set.
What to do between half 3 and haif 5am in the uk when you can't sleep, watch a 2hr. Shango video, brilliant!! Extensive knowledge, great talk through and humour, many thanks.
Congratulations on another successful resurrection! All original components baked in the sun for decades and it gets the chance to work again! Amazing! Nice "feature length" video, awesome way to spend an evening. Who says Mondays suck?
You got it working, I knew you could do it! Not only resurrected, but a decent picture at that. Thanks for sharing the diagnostic steps with us. Don't be so hard on yourself, we all do the occasional thing we shouldn't have done, but that doesn't make us dumb. It takes a lot of intelligence to be able to take a rusted, smashed, eroded tv set from the desert dump and make it work again on nearly all the original components. That was wild, the tube that just cracked itself in half. Loved that you tested that smashed one, it did have a bit of leakage... :) Thanks again, great video! -Niles
Been a fan for years, you make some entertaining videos! Thank you for making these! This might be my favorite of the last year or so. Impressive and enjoyable-to-watch resurrection of something in that ridiculously bad condition!
Absolutely amazing. I so look forward to your resurrection vids. It’s fascinating that what appears to be totally useless can be seen with a picture! Keep them coming shango, this is far more entertaining than the drivel that’s being transmitted... thankyou!
I just figured I'd tell you how much I enjoy your videos. I watch you daily. My dad sold electronic parts for quite a few years, and he can still tell you about certain tubes. Radio Shack was my favorite hangout when I was growing up. I watch you and radiotvphononut and will eventually get the nerve to tackle a repair myself. Keep up the good work!
A wonderful marathon of cool, I love the transformer with the tube poking out of the top, I would make a bloody ornament out of that!....I would!...congrats on the resurrection and cheers.
Extremely cool! Love your videos, I am still holed up in my little house in the middle of the USA (sort of) in South Dakota where it's friggin cold today! Wife is a penny pincher and has shut off the heat to save a few bucks, so here I sit under blankets with two cats on my lap as the wife and daughter drive 120 miles North so my daughter can visit the surgeon who operated on her busted up shoulder. Ah well it could be worse, I could still be working, no that was FUN damn it, ah well getting old sucks, I will be 69 in two weeks. Yay me!
The Old Golden Year's of TV's You find in your travels, I love the DEAD units You Restore.. Time to be a God in repairs, Time for a Resurrection.. It will be ALIVE AGAIN..
I am always amazed at the equipment you are able to get working again. This one in particular was unbelievable! You are amazingly talented. Much respect sir. Oh, and also, your dry humor is absolutely awesome! Thank you for making awesome and enjoyable videos.
Plus it just looks older than 1960.... The 606 is the EIA code for transformers from Woodward-Schumacher then the 5 is the year code, so 1955 and the last pair the week. Just in case you dump messages with web addresses...
When I was a teen, I had a mid 50's Trav-Ler 21" B&W TV model with the vertical chassis knobs out the front, with a Blonder-Tongue UHF converter attached to it, in my space in the basement. One of many Tv's and radio's I had as a kid.
40:20 " I might just leave it and see what happens" = Words that take us on a fun adventure in all of your resurrection video's. It's just fun to watch the real world troubleshooting involved in these.
Amazing! love the shot of the fuse, then same fuse wrapped in foil.Once dialed in it seemed most issues I saw were related to the weak Picture bulb. Would be fun to see this chassis with a decent CRT. Thanks as always
43:59 the scope is aliasing, because 10ms/div time base is way too long. Typical symptoms of aliasing can be seen: The frequency reading is suspiciously low, changes a lot even when the actual frequency changes a little, sometimes the waveform is backwards, hard to synchronize the scope, repeating patterns of several bigger and several smaller cycles...
Love your resurrection videos. Thank you for the effort in doing this. Amazing that such a mistreated 60 year old TV will work again without many replaced parts. Wonder how much of todays electronics will do the same in 60 years? Progress?!
I just find shango's videos so addictive, an amazing guy and would like to spend a day in the bar speaking to him about tv's and radio's. Just totally awesome guy with awesome knowledge. Think I would pay to work on these sets with Shango. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I feel better about this video because you at least had to do something (a whole lot of somethings actually) to get this working, vs the last time when you didn’t have to do anything. Still, it’s humbling because there isn’t any amount of somethings I ever could have done to get this thing going. Just amazing!
Wow shango066, you sure have the gift for sticking with challenges! Outstanding job!!! I'm surprised the picture was as good as it was with all the dag coating missing and severely weathered paper caps. I think it's going to take more than a few drops of miracle cabinet restorer to bring back that hand rubbed lacquer finish to like-new appearance.
Oh man this really made my day, especially the 2 hour special. I love these resurrections. You could go back for the rca in one of the bunk houses that had the bad socket. That would make a cool video. And what ever happened to the Silvertone Meteopolitan?
That's just amazing, i expected it to be well past repair, but it's alive :-D How the hell could so many Resistors and Caps still work after the desert baking.
I do not own and never have owned anything with a tube in it. But i keep watching these videos. Ooo sparks and danger niccceeee. Diagnosticate. Im using that one lol.
Greetings from England. Hope you and yours are staying well. Love your channel even though I dont know jack about electronics. You should do stand up comedy - your sense of humour is spot on.
Same at the coal fired power plant I can still smell the kroil, in the winter time we would mix it with anti-seize lube and put it in the air motors that ran the soot blower s
You made a 70 year old TV that was sitting out in the rain work again!!!!! No doubt if the various old parts were replaced it would have a perfect picture.
...this is one more time such a wonderful work of you ! ... as we know it ^^ before I forget it: NEVER use the ion-trap to center the picture or correct dark edges (1:43:53) ! This can destroy this wonderful picture tube of the customers beautiful tv ! The ion-trap has to be aligned only for maximum brightness and the dark edges are from incorrect placement of the deflection-unit, this has to be more pushed in the front direction and centering with 2 magnet-rings or an adjustable magnet beside the yoke... I am sure you know this, all of your work is so welldone and well pre-thinked, I am so often speechless and like it so much.
"This is not gonna be a pick it up off the river bed and brush the dirt off resurrection"
My father was 25 when that tv was new. He's gone now. Glad you could bring the tv back to life.
Sorry for your loss. :(
@Etienne As Aussies, we didn't even have TV at all until 1956. So in 1955 most of us would have listened to records or the radio.
When you tested that smashed 6CU6 I cracked up laughing you did it dead pan seriously.. well done sir, your entertainment channel will go far!
That perfectly fine I don't see anything wrong with that.
Wat a kool Travler TV from @1955 tex me my name is greg
After 30+ years disintegration out side in the desert, working again after relatively few repairs. Astounding! Great video.
Indeed, and without changing all the electroletic's!
Shango066,
You said around the 45 minute mark that "This is crappy video" False sir! I appreciate your uploads your diagnoses skills are the best on TH-cam!

Cool, it sounds like a Zenith port-hole model. Does it look like the one (one of may vintage TVs) in the Rolling Stones "She was hot." video?

We agree with you
Transformer date code
606 = Schumacher manufacturer
5 = last digit again probably 1955
38 = 38th week of the year
The other stuff above the numbers on these are the part numbers for Trav-ler. They could tell Schumacher when they ordered what to put on there as a custom part number so they could keep them straight in the factory, or it would come as a standard Schumacher part number. Those Schumacher transformers are the same brand used on 1950s and 1960s Fender guitar amplifiers. The output transformers could be very valuable if they work, being from 1955!
Right on Brad,I knew you know all this for sure.Didn't know you watched shango.Hahaha.Cool.
I don't think something that was dumped in the desert since the 80s could be suitable for something
it can be Restord whit a 90% nue Hausing, CRT-Rebuild and you can jous it as a funny Monitor for a 90s Sega-Mega-Drive, Sony PS 1, 2 or 3 or for Wotsching old Wovi-VHS-Taps.

I can't stop watching ,Great about the resurrection an it's a television.
Have an old television round crt ,rca, bakelite cabinet ..
I too use a variac..
Will use some of your techniques.
I noticed they still transmit color patterns .
Keep up the good work .

I love your long videos. Love you always shango. xoxoxo
Advert showing iPhone 11 4g on a 1955/1956 tube set crt is awesome
Adverts for 202x POS SUV's on videos of old rust buckets.
I would have never thought that you could get this set to work again.Amazing.
There's something about seeing an ad for 4G LTE cellphone plans on a 1950s black and white TV.

From the dust of the desert to the excitement of the Superbowl what a ticket.........Enjoyable two hours that.Thank you!!!
A nearly 2 hour special. Riveting entertainment!

I am impressed. You bring it back to alive. it is ashamed that is all for the dumpster at the end. In Germany These kind of TVs are really Rare. Thank you so much for the Entertaining Video. :)
its too rusted to restore and the good parts are needed for sets that get restored
I know little about this brand. However to work as good as you managed, with most of its original parts, after what that TV has been through... That is quality. That was a well made set.
That circuit topology using the audio output tube to drop the voltage for the IF strip and tuner was typically called a "stacked B+" system.
What to do between half 3 and haif 5am in the uk when you can't sleep, watch a 2hr. Shango video, brilliant!!
Extensive knowledge, great talk through and humour, many thanks.
Besides experience what education is required to achieve the ammount of excellence you have? You are a dying breed sir. I am merely a tinkerer.
It's like landing to another planet, discovering the remnats of ancient civilizations technology and resurrecting it! Bravo!
Im no 1 watching of your video
Funny and interesting
Thanks yours sharing your a knowledge
Shango, if I could give you 100 thumbs up, I would! F'in AMAZING!!! One hell of a resurection!!
I love the videos and the sarcasms make them more entertaining, Keep up the great work.
You never fail to amaze me when you bring back the dead like this!!!!
I love the long resurrection videos!
1st class video to watch thank you take care kind regards from me kenneth
Congratulations on another successful resurrection! All original components baked in the sun for decades and it gets the chance to work again! Amazing! Nice "feature length" video, awesome way to spend an evening. Who says Mondays suck?
Is there anything nicer than waking up to a shango video in your notifications?
yeah. gotta love it when i have homework to do as monday is the busiest day for me and watching shango after im done.
Nothing I can think of....
Monday...the best day of the week. Whenever it's Monday I think it's ShangoDay!
Yes, seeing a sparkle pony master charge or little Debbie snack bulb video in the cue is also good.

Same here...I love Shango066 videos on Monday mornings
It's a long one .

I was literally late for work to try and fit in as much as possible.
I am always amazed at the equipment you are able to get working again. This one in particular was unbelievable! You are amazingly talented. Much respect sir. Oh, and also, your dry humor is absolutely awesome! Thank you for making awesome and enjoyable videos.
I wish I could go back to 1967, life was happier back then.
You should have called this video "Superfreak".
Really went against all odds, as far as the components are concerned.
Wow.
Plus it just looks older than 1960....
The 606 is the EIA code for transformers from Woodward-Schumacher then the 5 is the year code, so 1955 and the last pair the week.
Just in case you dump messages with web addresses...
That was amazing. I hope it didn't end up a dumpster artifact. Very impressive.
Your revival skills are astounding, Shango. Amazing video.
im in to ham radio and gmrs love your videos i watch all of them thanks man
I usually eat lunch while watching your videos...just hope I don't barf or get written up for taking a 2 hour lunch today
I like how you give us the finger when you point to things! Love the vids...

Great resurrection Shango066. I was in doubt a few times on it working but the Master came through. Nice and take care!
Shango066 reminds me of a old Star Trek episode where Spock made a radio out of old parts to talk to the Enterprise.

40:20 " I might just leave it and see what happens" = Words that take us on a fun adventure in all of your resurrection video's. It's just fun to watch the real world troubleshooting involved in these.
Amazing! love the shot of the fuse, then same fuse wrapped in foil.Once dialed in it seemed most issues I saw were related to the weak Picture bulb. Would be fun to see this chassis with a decent CRT. Thanks as always
I'm only at 1:10:00 but holy shit, my jaw dropped when you got Channel 6 in. How the hell can this old stuff manage to work under such conditions?!?!?
1:09:50 That you have what is essentially a desert-abandoned TV chassis operating after a few hours of troubleshooting is AMAZING!
43:59 the scope is aliasing, because 10ms/div time base is way too long.

I'd actually travel to the USA from the UK to meet shango for a coffee ☕
Me too, and head back with a TV and some knowledge!
I'd walk a mile for a shango066. At shango066, it's performance that counts. OK, older Americans, which 1960's product TV adverts am I referencing?
